BBC Capital plans to develop the site of the former Moulin Rouge hotel and casino in the west of the city.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
Australia.- BBC Capital, an Australian private equity investment firm, has acquired the vacant site of the former Moulin Rouge Hotel in downtown Las Vegas for the development of a new casino.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The sale was approved by Clark County District Court judge, Elizabeth Gonzalez.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
BBC Capital assigned its interest in the sale to RAH Capital, a Nevada-based company created for the operation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
According to Las Vegas Review, RAH Capital paid US$3.1m for the 11.3 vacant acres, including a parcel attached to an active non-restricted gaming licence.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The Moulin Rouge Hotel was the first racially integrated casino in west Las Vegas. It closed in 1955, although continued to open for a minimum of eight hours every two years to retain its licence. The building itself was demolished in 2010 after being largely destroyed by a series of fires. The legendary site has been in court receivership since 2013.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Local residents are attached to the Moulin Rouge\u2019s historic significance. According to media reports, concerns have already been raised over the future of the site.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
